Rare Vovlo V70 R Wagon 4-door 2.5l 2004 on 2040-cars
Winter Park, Florida, United States
|
This Volvo V70 R is a very well taken care of station wagon, owned by the former general sales manager of the Volvo Store in Winter Park. Needless to say, this car has been maintained to the exacting standards of a Volvo Expert. The interior is in impeccable condition, and there are few V70 R's that have been preserved in such high condition. The V70 R comes equipped with Volvo's own 4C multi-mode suspension, allowing for both sport and comfortable suspension selections. The V70R will feel just as comfortable getting groceries as it will out on a track doing 120mph. Brembo Brakes are standard issue on ever V70R, because the 2.5L Turbocharged Straight 5 Engine was simply too powerful for standard brakes. The Wall Street Journal says that with "79% more power than the base V70 wagon, Its current V70 R is the fastest Volvo wagon yet. Our tester sprinted from zero to 60 mph in 5.5 seconds -- a hair quicker than a Porsche Boxster. And on the practical side, it was the only car out of the five that could carry our TV box without requiring us to fold the rear seats first." "Seeking to lure speed-crazy guys with kids, car makers are trying to transform the dowdy old family hauler into something new: the manwagon. In perhaps the most extreme sign of the industry's horsepower race, some of these wagons are quicker than a Porsche Boxster. They have monstrous engines, giant brakes, track-ready suspensions and race-car-style seats -- plus prices up to $30,000 higher than the base versions. But unlike a sports car, these wagons can fit strollers and coolers in the back."
For more than 43 years, Noel's has been the reliable source for remanufactured Mercedes Benz longblock engines. *Picture of engines are photos of actual longblocks remanufactured at Noels. No advanced core charge, complimentary installation kit, and our 4-year or 50,000 mile warranty.
Noel's Rebuilt engines are built to maximize performance and longevity. All valves used in Noel's engines have under .0003" runout to increase compression, and create a smooth idle. Every engine is taken completely apart and inspected. All cranks at Noel's are standard, unground cranks. New rods are statically balanced by weight and must pass a straightness test of .001". New pistons are properly clearanced into the existing block and are matched to a replaced rod. Block and head decking is done to a perfect finish, and cams are polished into a "Racing Style" finish to decrease resistance. Many of our engines are built with parts that we have designed and fabricated ourselves to increase the longevity and horsepower output of our engines. The majority of our engines have tweaked cams that allow them to respond instantly and run smoothly in the low end. All seals within our longblocks are brand new, and every wear surface inside of the engine is pre-lubed so that after installation and insertion of oil into the engine, it will run in the original, pristine condition that it was manufactured to. It would be almost impossible to find a new factory engine with a lower leak down than our remanufactured engines. We do not use 'general' engine building techniques for our engines. Every engine that enters Noels has a specific set of problems that we have diagnosed, and we use our experience from building race engines to improve upon the failure points in every troubled engine. Many of our customers have said that "With a Noel Engine, My car runs BETTER than it was new!" Say goodbye to oil leaks, pesky electronic codes, and poor idling, and say hello to more horsepower in your car than ever before! We believe in taking the time to inspect new parts, and build the engine right the first time. Mercedes has New Mercedes has Reman  |

Volvo S60 Polestar entering limited production in Australia [w/video]
Wed, 10 Apr 2013The Volvo S60 Polestar Concept may be entering limited production in Australia and, depending how the Aussies take to this Swedish super sports sedan, could then be made available worldwide. The news comes from Austrlia's GoAuto, which claims to have received early info from its sources inside Volvo and its tuning/motorsport arm, Polestar.
Polestar released a short teaser video this week (watch it below) of what appears to be the S60 Polestar Concept clipping the snowy apex of an ice track's turn. The only information given with the teaser were the words "Limited Edition. Soon in Australia." Unveiled last June, the S60 Polestar concept has since made the rounds at auto shows, visited Jay Leno's Garage, played on the track with its future competition, and even secured a home for itself with a buyer who reportedly is paying Volvo some $300,000 to own it.
The S60 Polestar Concept is about the meanest machine one can imagine making out of Volvo's sports sedan. Packing 508 horsepower and 424 pound-feet of torque from its heavily modified T6 engine, then routing those revolutions through a six-speed manual transmission to all four wheels, the S60 Polestar is said to cover the sprint to 62 miles per hour in 3.9 seconds. A lower and wider body, brakes by Brembo, suspension bits by Ohlins and a diet to delete some weight make this car a serious issue for M3 and C63 AMG owners everywhere. GoAuto's sources say the production version's performance will be dialed back a bit from the concept's, but we'll have to wait until Volvo and Polestar make this sedan's production official to find out by how much.
Volvo won't go after S-Class, 7 Series market
Mon, 22 Apr 2013Volvo vice president of powertrain engineering, Derek Crabb, recently said that the Swedish automaker is developing smaller and smarter powertrain options that will "turn V8s into dinosaurs" - a statement that could have been our first indication that Volvo is no longer looking to create a luxury flagship sedan to take on German land yachts like the Mercedes-Benz S-Class, Audi A8 and BMW 7 Series. Now Automotive News seems to be backing this up after speaking with CEO Hakan Samuelsson, who said that a big sedan wouldn't fit the brand's green image and, more importantly, might not even be a car that its customers would even consider.
Rather than trying to compete in a small, established market against rear-drive, 12-cylinder sedans, Volvo is looking at the emerging, higher-volume premium small car segment to take on its German rivals with the all-new Volvo V40 (shown above). Not wanting to abandon the big-vehicle segment altogether, a next-generation XC90 is due out within the next couple years (and was spotted in some recent spy shots), and it will ride on the new Scalable Platform Architecture (SPA), which will be shared with the new S80 according to the AN article.
Tony Nicolosi named CEO of Volvo Cars North America
Fri, 04 Oct 2013Volvo announced today that it has named Tony Nicolosi, president and CEO of Volvo Car Financial Services VCFS), as the new CEO of Volvo Cars of North America (VCNA). Nicolosi replaces John Maloney, who chose to leave due to family obligations after Volvo offered him a position in Europe.
Volvo says Nicolosi will remain president and CEO of VCFS while he assumes VCNA's top position. The Swedish automaker also says a "permanent successor [to Maloney] as President and CEO will be the subject of a later announcement."
The move comes as part of a management shakeup that's part of a "larger transformation taking place at Volvo," the automaker says.
